Frequently asked questions
Supplier registration, domains and value transparency
Does one Panacea account cover every buyer?
Notices in this catalogue name 1 hostnames for Panacea. This does not tell us how many accounts you need: one account can cover multiple buyers and one domain can contain separate workspaces. Follow the exact notice and confirm account reuse in the portal's registration guidance.
Why are net and gross contract estimates separated here?
Under the Procurement Act 2023, many notices publish estimated values inclusive of VAT rather than net of VAT. Tenderline tracks net (161 notices) and gross-only (49 notices) values in separate figures so higher-tax or zero-rated contracts do not distort portal averages.
How does Panacea compare with other UK procurement portals?
In the dated 24-month study, Panacea carried 250 procedures from 25 buyers. Compare its primary sectors and named buyers with other channels before deciding where to focus. Read the UK tender portal market study →
About this data
- What counts as Panacea. A notice whose submission link points to this portal. Award notices rarely publish that link, so the awards side is undercounted. Notices from 10 Feb 2022 to 13 Nov 2026.
- Portal facts. Registration and login notes were checked on the live portal in November 2026. Portals change their sign-up steps; the notice’s own instructions take precedence.
- Independent. Portal and operator names belong to their owners and appear only to show where notices are published; Tenderline is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to any portal.
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender and Contracts Finder), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0, updated through the day and rebuilt nightly. Not every figure uses both feeds, and each one shows how many records it rests on: see the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
